Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower Pakoras

    Cut the cauliflower into small florets. In a bowl, mix besan, spices, salt, and water to form a batter. Dip cauliflower florets in the batter and deep fry until golden brown.

    Slice the eggplant into thin rounds. Dip them in the same batter used for cauliflower and fry until crispy.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Meat Samosas

    Boil and mash the potatoes, and mix with ground meat, chopped onions, minced garlic, ginger, and spices. Fill the samosa wrappers with the mixture and seal. Deep fry until golden.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Veggie Samosas

    Use the same potato mixture, but add green peas instead of meat. Fill the samosa wrappers and deep fry.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Chicken Pakoras

    Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and marinate with spices and a bit of besan. Dip pieces in batter and fry until cooked through.
